Looking after everyone
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Ensure the van and queue are well lit
- Have a back-up for special diets
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is frequently wise.
A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.

The process
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. Sunset in Sherfield English in late December is about 4:00pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- It starts with your date, site and numbers.
- We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
- We agree arrival, lighting and the serving spot with you or the venue.
- We cook to order and serve from the hatch on time.
- We pack up when service ends and leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Give us a contact for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can send us your details through our quote form.

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
What’s the nearest station to Sherfield English?

How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Do you bring everything you need?

Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.

How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Distance and any road charges
- How many people are eating
- Service time
- The minimum booking
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
What to tell us
The more we know about your Christmas party, the better we can plan. Please include:
- A photo of the parking spot
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Any dietary needs and allergies
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A photo of the spot helps too. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.

Should I sort the food myself?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
